Over the past few years, I’ve seen #Bitcoin fans and people who view themselves as influencers take a variety of uncompromising stances on things that have nothing to do with hard money.
Whether it was dietary (meat-only), constitutional (2A), political (insert preferred lunatic), cultural (modern art sucks), medical (anti-vaxx), environmental (anti-ESG), etc. and now, it seems, there’s this trend to promote human reproduction. I typically don’t like to get involved in any of these arguments because, well, it’s a waste of my precious time.
When I first became interested in it, ten years ago, I was fascinated by an immutable, censorship-resistant, cryptographically secure, pseudonymous, global, P2P, non-governmental, digital money that was, at that time, non-correlated to other asset classes. I saw this value then and I still do, for the most part. But that’s it.
Just because I was early in appreciating this, I don’t think that gives me special knowledge in other domains. Evidently, others feel differently.
On the topic of raising a family, do it if you want.. but implying that other people’s lives are meaningless if they do not want kids is just something I cannot abide.
I’m here to tell you that child-free is great, too. Don’t let society, parents, or bullies pressure you into doing something you don’t want to do. You only get one life, do what you want with it. nostr:note1f6zhtr80pp6rskpngcgtcaqv3m4qd5vtsskn2e39g5z9k3k7l54ssax9k0
